As seen on last night’s SmackDown Live, Commissioner Shane McMahon confirmed WWE Backlash on 9/11 from Richmond, VA will be the first brand-exclusive PPV of the new Brand Extension era.
It’s worth noting that John Cena is not being advertised for Backlash, as he’s scheduled to compete in a WWE live event in Shanghai, China the prior night.
On a related note, John Cena is working at least one RAW brand event in the coming months. He was just added to the 9/9 RAW live event in Manila, Philippines, where he’ll face Big Show.
